Summary

As the population ages in France, more people need help with daily activities. Family members and other informal caregivers often provide this support, which can be physically and emotionally demanding and may affect their well-being.

This study evaluates the "Aidant TLC (Thrive, Learn, Connect)" program, a support program designed to help caregivers better manage stress, emotions, and relationships. The program has been developed in the United States but has not yet been tested in France.

The goal of this study is to compare the effects of the program when delivered in two formats: online (remote) and in person. A third group of participants will not receive the program during the study period but will be offered it afterward.

A total of 75 caregivers will take part in the study. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the three groups. The program consists of weekly group sessions over several weeks. Questionnaires will be used before and after the program to measure mood, stress, confidence, and overall well-being.

The results of this study will help determine whether this program is effective and whether it can be offered more widely to support caregivers, including those who may have difficulty accessing in-person services.
